    Worst trip ever

    6 Hour Trip – Backline Fishing - 5:00 PM • 2 adults

    I am very disappointed, will never use them again. Not recommended

    Response from Captain

    Hi Mr De Klerk, very disappointed in your review. We travelled across the entire backline with several other boats and unfortunately the water was not pemitting good fishing. We then proceeded to parts of the harbour channel allowing you to atleast get some bites going where you landed a nice Mullet and also a lovely Kingfish. I am very sorry you feel that we were responsible for the fish not biting on the backline. We would like to indulge you in a free harbour trip due to your experience.

What's biting with Fishing With Agra in Durban

The temperature is picking up. There might be rains, and it takes some time for the waters to clear up. But that won't prevent Bonitos from coming after your lure.

Shoals of Salmon and the odd Rockchod

Dec 22, 2025 • Durban
We started off a bit slow with 2 anglers fishing for the first time. As the day progressed both the first anglers were on simultaneously and as you may say "beginners luck" but it hardly seemed like it after they caught almost a dozen fish each. Ibviously wr released the smaller fish and only took the necessary limit and sizes. Wverybody on the boat caught some beautiful fish and the trip ended a success.
